One durable metal coil with rubber insulated wire and the spark plug boot is included per order. To complete this repair you would need screwdriver set.

Easy repair, perfect fit, worked perfect again
Replaced the ignition coil on my TROY Belt with a Honda GCV160 engine. Set the gap between the coil heads and the magneto(?) with a business card. Put everything back together. Started with one pull and ran perfectly. Took two weeks to get the part after the order was placed but I can't fault eReplacement with that.

Engine started fine, but it sputtered and died when it got hot. I checked the carburetor, spark plug, and air filter. They were all good. The coil had broken down. When it was replaced the machine

First I removed the air cleaner cover and removed the the old air cleaner and installed the new one. I then removed the coil assembly from the unit and installed the new on, and gapped distance between the coil and the magnets on the flywheel at 0.024 I then replace the spark plug and gapped the new one at 0.030 and installed it in the engine. Engine runs very well now.
